Hi Guys - a few years ago I received much help from FM on wiring MTH crossing gates using a relay. Since then we moved and I am setting up my layout again. My problem? I lost the wiring diagram I made for the crossing gates. I already did a search and reviewed my previous posts regarding the gate wiring. The only problem I have - I can't find where to connect the red and black wires coming from the gate (see diagram). Here are 2 questions I have:
1. Where do I connect the red and black wires coming from the gate?
2. If I run 2 parallel tracks (see diagram of track A & B) and add another gate where do I run the common wire from the outside rail of track B?? (my thought was to "piggyback it to where the common wire is connected from track A OR run a common wire from the outside rail of track B to the outside rail of track A). My goal is that whenever a train passes on track A or B the 2 gates would operate.
3. Are the wires that show in the diagram connected correctly??
Always appreciate your help!
Paul
